Our Coming Soon Banner...

Hello friends!

It's been a CRAZY few weeks! We're still in construction and still shooting to open in early August. In the meantime, we thought it'd be a great idea to hang up a "coming soon" banner to give passersby an idea of what-the-hell is going on.

Here it is as best taken by my blackberry:



Our windows are also up (you can kinda see them below banner). A very warm and special thank you to our friends at El Paso Print and Mail for kindly donating the banner to us :) xxo

Paper Nails

OMG! Love these nails! Saw them on the topshop blog today. What I love the most is that they provided step-by-step instructions on how-to. You know what I'll be doing this weekend :)

We Have a Logo

After a couple of weeks of back and forth with the AMAZING Viva Creative team, we've finally picked a logo for J. Luxe Boutique!

Mando came up with a few brilliant designs--some simple, some with monograms, and some handwritten options. Surprisingly the handwritten ones were the absolute fan favorites--no question about it. He suggested we'd sleep on it and take a look at our options for a few days, that way, we would "just know."

Well, he was right to say the least.

The personal thing about the logo is that it's my handwriting. Mando had me send his team pages and pages of capital J's, lowercase j's, L's, "uxes," and so forth. When I called him today to give him our final decision, he admitted this was his favorite too. 

Here it is--I hope you all love it as much as we do!

Dreamy Living

Erin Featherson's NYC apartment.



Saw this table set at a flea market recently. I regret not buying it, but it never hurts to go back and check!
